Could you help them find the problem more quickly by specifying which file has the broken code you posted? aballier@gentoo.org 2008-10-18 08:10:04 0000 thanks for the report, i've set LC_ALL to C at the top of the src_compile. After grepping the source, there are waaaaayyy too many A-Z a-z regexps... even if we fix the build problem, there may very well remain some hidden problems, so i've prefered the simple way of setting C locale instead.
